Founded in April 2014 by Alan Sim and his secondary school friend, Old Skool Dessert House in Odeon Katong is a tribute throwback to the nostalgia of the 80s. Designed to resemble a classroom from the founders' childhood, Old Skool Dessert House offers traditional Singaporean desserts on their menu, as well as modern, adventurous, experimental fusion desserts.Ambience at Old Skool Dessert House is a blast from the past.

Ambience at Old Skool Dessert House is a blast from the past. Wooden furniture is laid out in neatly on the bare concrete floor, resembling a classroom. They even have a 'detention corner' for patrons waiting for takeaway! Retro toys and snack packagings complete the nostalgic look, and diners can have fun identifying all the various childhood items here. They even have a magazine bin, which is a retro repurposed metal trash bin!
Service at Old Skool Dessert House is semi self-service. Ordering and payment can either be done at the counter, or staff will come over to take your orders tableside. The casual, friendly atmosphere extends throughout, and the small floor space lends a sense of cozyness. I like that staff can describe the various menu items well, especially their more unique dessert creations!Food at Old Skool Dessert House largely comprises traditional Singaporean desserts, although they have a small selection of dim sum snacks on the menu. Founder Alan Sim and his sister-in-law create the desserts in-house, and I find their classic desserts to be good. They also experiment with dessert creations as well, especially their signature snowflake, creating unique, modern fusion desserts. Portions are sufficient for 1 person, and prices are decent as well, budget about SGD $6 per person for a dessert here.
The Chilling Mango Pomelo (SGD $4.50) has a generous portion of diced fresh mangoes, sweet and juicy! Love the creamy, milky sauce, and large, chewy sago balls, and I like the touch of pulled pomelo pulp as a garnish. Fruity dessert, and rather refreshing.
